The above doesn't tell me which cross-compiling tools you are using.   That
looks like the native tools.

the intelmote2 (imote2) uses xscale-elf-gcc while the micaz uses avr-gcc.

That page is dated.   I don't know what the current methods are as I don't
use ancient motes.  I'm using reasonably modern msp430 based motes off a
private tinyos development tree.

The linker isn't happy about something.   But I can't help you much more
than that.

I would look to see what actual toolchain you have installed and see if you
can replicate exactly what is suggested in the docs page.
